This sandwich of white bread and cheese spread is far from pretentious, but it became popular at a pretty fancy event: the Masters golf tournament in Augusta, where it’s still sold for just $1.50. Pimiento cheese spread itself far predates the Masters: The first published recipe can be traced to a 1908 issue of Good Housekeeping.

Ingredients

8 ounces sharp yellow cheddar cheese, shredded

4 ounces pepper jack cheese, shredded

3/4 cup mayonnaise

1/2 cup chopped drained pimientos

1 small shallot, grated

Pinch of cayenne pepper

8 slices white bread

Directions

Mix the cheddar, pepper jack, mayonnaise, pimientos, shallot and cayenne in a medium bowl.
Spread the pimiento cheese mixture on 4 bread slices and top with the remaining 4 bread slices.
